Time for another big roundup of the dividends I received over the past couple of months.

Adding it all up results in 345.88EUR for Q1 2021. About 8 percent less than a year ago, most of it due to the Shell dividend cut and due to a payment that shifted from March to April.
The good news is that the total portfolio value is hitting fresh all-time highs. I haven’t updated the portfolio page on this blog for a long time. One of the interesting things is that most of my best performers are stocks that pay no or a very small dividend. Several of my high-paying dividend stocks on the other hand have turned out to be absolute stinkers. I’m thinking about stocks like AB InBev, Gilead, GSK, Kinder Morgan, and Royal Dutch Shell.
